lol
why he humble playing lin dan,people say he cant win like this
when he stare lin dan through out the match,people say he is cocky and what so ever
next time lcw should put on a mask,like this no complain
hahaha

yeah i agree with u, LCW was just trying to play his game and people said he is cocky whatsoever.

but for me, there`s a nervous sign everytime LCW plays LD.
how can u be cocky when u are facing someone that beat u 14 times(15 times after the KO)???
talking about cocky......yeah, LD is cocky, but it`s doing good for him, he is a man who thrive when he feels confident. he knows he is a level higher than LCW.
it`s up to LCW to overcome his fear when facing someone of LD calibre........but saying that he is cocky, that`s an unrealistic accusation

i'm not saying he's cocky or smth... he's not apologizing when he hits the shuttle that touches the net and fall on the other side like every other players did. I saw LD keeps raising his hand apologizing even when LCW/any other players made a mistake at the net, wonder why was that? hahaha...

lin dan has basically shut lcw and taufik up once and for all for bad-mouthing him when he withdrew from the malaysian open last week even though the malaysian doctor had certified lin dan to be unfit for his quarter-final match with chen long. both of them wanted the badminton world federation (bwf) to investigate into the validity of lin dan's withdrawal and penalize him - how unprofessional and unbecoming of them!

between the 2 players, i think lin dan has got more grace and class than lcw. i always hate to see lcw going up to his opponent to shake their hands after he had won the game and trying to show some empathy - how hypocritical! this time when lin dan won, he simply shied away almost immediately without any grace and class - i guess he was in a state of shock and disbelief with himself and can't muster enough courage to congratulate lin dan properly after the game.

i strongly believe lcw really thought he can beat lin dan this time and was even cocky during some exchanges in the match but time and time again, lin dan has proven that lcw is still second best to him in the world. with this victory, even the most ardent lcw fan or lin dan hater would have to admit that lin dan is simply the greatest player ever to walk this earth.

why asking BWF to investigate this matter is unprofessional?

and why showing some empathy towards ur opponent is hypocritical?
i rather someone who beats be doing that than running the whole stadium screaming like he got posessed.

U said LCW didnt congratulate LD properly? how can he? LD just ran away to the crowd after the game, what do u expect? for him to chase LD?
were u even watched that match?

I`m not anything against LD or any other player, he is a legend of modern badminton and I respect him, but for you to just saying words like "hypocritical", "unprofessional", "unbecoming" to some player, u must have a basis before saying anything like that....

yeah.....that`s true, it`s clearly he is under pressure and he should have apologize

QUOTE=volcom;1616024]Sensational performance to seal the great victory at Premier KOpen 2011!!!
A true legend!!!
A great taste of victory after he was robbed in the 2008 edition by the linejudges....
A very patriotic moment for him with the Chinese National Flag....
Absolutely amazing match!!!![/QUOTE]

Last week I was in KL for the M'sia Open, bought both the SF and F tickets, but denied the chance to witness the titanic clash between two worthy opponents, the best the world has to offer at present. LD's compatriot replacement CL was no match for LCW in the SF.

And now I also missed the much talked-about marathon match (1hr 14min) between these two well-oiled gladiators in the neutral climes of Korea.

Even Li Mao wasn't there to interfere in the finals since he had left KOR and as INA's Simon Santoso (whom I understand LM is now coaching) had lost narrowly to LD in the previous day's SF marathon (1hr 16min). Perhaps LYB was also absent or at least out of sight and not being able to create another uproar. And I suspect both the players' respected coaches MS and "The Thing" were also not around to lend support.

I believe the officials, especially the line judges, will have no reason to be biased as well since no KOR players were involved.

Even LD haters cannot say that he did not deserve this title. Cause from round 1 to final, he beat (Non CHina) players. Usually lots of us speculate that his teammates give him easy matches so he had ton of energy to play LCW in final. But since QF he had to play rubber sets 3 times to beat TH, SS and then LCW in final.

LCW only need 160 minutes on his road to final and LD need 187 minutes . LCW clearly the fresher between them in final and still lost crucial points in the third set.

you are reading too much into the unrelated little nitpicky details from the actual game itself. i wonder if you even watch the game at all.

lcw is after all a kumpong boy who can't even handle an interview - unlike lin dan. if you can't agree 100% that he is cocky, unprofessional, hypocritical and unbecoming, well at least you will agree that he lacks grace, class & intellect (compared to lin dan). i mean how intelligent can you be when you have misbun as your coach? did he not quit BAM only to appear right away alongside lcw and coaching him in the malaysian open? i guess he simply can't stay away from the limelight even for a minute - what a loser.

i've been watching lcw play the last few years and have seen his change in character on court. i used to like him but am lately having 2nd thoughts. he has become emotionless much like a ruthless assassin (ala morten frost) and seem to be obsessed in trying to establish his legacy as world no. 1 come hell or high water. but unfortunately, or fortunately. the annal of badminton history will always coin him as a 2nd fiddle to lin dan!

As for LCW being "cocky", well, I noticed this little change personality of LCW since 2008. Whenever LCW plays LD, he's shouting/pumping fist, I think it's a way to give himself confidence in the game. While on the other hand, LD has become more polite / humble (you all remember how he was back in the days, right?). TXF taught LD to control his temper, and it really works for LD.
